Here is what i got when i open powershell log folder

As you can see this folder does not contain any EditorServices.log file, only vscode-powershell.log, with same information as displayed above

Regards

TylerLeonhardt commented 5 years ago

Do you have any GPO rules in place that this machine is a part of?

rkeithhill commented 5 years ago

Does this yield any events that happened at the same time you attempted to launch the extension?

Get-EventLog -LogName Application -EntryType Error -Newest 10 | Where Source -match 'Application|\.NET' | Format-List *

oliviermasson commented 5 years ago

Yes my laptop is managed by my company, so GPO are in place. But this is the case since few years, and i use VS with powershell extension since few years without any trouble. I could check with my IT, but i'm not aware of any change in our GPO.

Here are the event log during my issue. As you will see, nothing relative with VS:

I don't know if it's relative to my issue, but the error message when VS try to open a Powershell Integrated Console refer to a session timedout.

When i'm trying to open New Terminal VS succefully and quickly open a powershell termninal, without any issue:

TylerLeonhardt commented 5 years ago

@olivermasson can you try this troubleshooting step for restricted systems and let us know if that helps?

oliviermasson commented 5 years ago

Hi @TylerLeonhardt

I've followed the troubleshooting step for restricted systems, and now I can tell you that there doesn't seem to be any GPO that prevents the import of the module, nor a signature problem, see next screenshot:

And it's the same for this module:

rjmholt commented 5 years ago

Do you know when this issue started occurring? Was it followed by a PowerShell extension update, or maybe a Windows update or possibly after a VSCode update?

oliviermasson commented 5 years ago

Hello Robert,

I'm not sure, because I haven't used it in almost a month. I know that when I restarted VS code, there was an update of VS. I don't know if there have been any updates to the plugin. I think there have been updates on my OS.

For the record, I have another PC (which is not managed by my company) and for which, the powershell plugin runs correctly. Here is the information for this PC:

Hope this could help. Thank you

SydneyhSmith commented 5 years ago

@oliviermasson sorry you are hitting this issue, it is difficult for us to identify the cause but I think the best option is to make sure you have a clean, up-to-date environment:

Uninstall VSCode rm -fo -r ~.vscode Install any pending Windows updates Restart your machine Install VSCode Install the PowerShell extension Check for the bug If it persists, Install VSCode Insiders Install the PowerShell extension in VSCode insiders

If the bug's still there at that point, turn on diagnostic logging and upload your logs here. Particularly of interest would be the terminal's execution trace from the startup script. If we still find nothing, I would suspect security policy or some kind of system lockdown that causes PowerShell to lock up when trying to execute some step. Antivirus software sometimes likes to silently stop execution in our startup script

oliviermasson commented 5 years ago

HI @SydneyhSmith

unfortunately uninstalling and completely re-installing vscode or vscode insiders as you told me does not fix the problem. Is there not a way to have a little more verbosity in the WaitForCompletion() function? Because it is precisely in this function that the problem occurs, at line 456 of Start-EditorServices.ps1

While the Language service and Debug service seem to be started correctly, as indicated in the logs:

2019-07-12 18:14:14:16.502[NORMAL] tid:16 in'StartLanguageService' C:\PowerShellEditorServices\src\PowerShellEditorServices.Host\EditorServicesHost.cs: line 202
    Language service started, type = NamedPipe, endpoint = InOut pipe: PSES_th3pdf5q.zao

2019-07-12 18:14:14:16.515[NORMAL] tid:16 in'StartDebugService' C:\PowerShellEditorServices\src\PowerShellEditorServices.Host\EditorServicesHost.cs: line 279
    Debug service started, type = NamedPipe, endpoint = InOut pipe: PSES_mupq5edj.5c0

Thanks in advance

rjmholt commented 5 years ago

WaitForCompletion is here. It's a hook in the startup script where it waits for the language server to fire an event before it shuts down; if you're busy using the extension, you don't want that method to return because it means the extension is shutting down.

The actual problem lies elsewhere.

We've had a bunch of startup issues recently, seemingly brought on by updates in VSCode or Windows (we haven't released an update recently and haven't had reports of issues on *nix or recent Windows versions). This class of problems seems to occur at some deeper level and its not clear how to get more information, but possibly collecting a dump and collecting fusion logs are the next steps. We've seen it occur on less recent Windows versions, and Windows systems with some kind of lockdown or policy applied. If you have an antivirus installed, you should check any logs it provides to see if it's silently blocking something.

Could you provide the name and version of your operating system as well? Hopefully we can identify a pattern in startup hang reports based on that.

Hello @rjmholt ,

I don't have antivirus software on my laptop, but certainly something worse in terms of locking and it's called avecto defendpoint. But despite this and for more than a year, vscode and all its extensions (including powershell) worked perfectly. Watching event log, i can't notice any warning or error relative to powershell or any locks. On the contrary, I only note that Start-EditorServices.ps1 successfully registered in engine lifecycle event

I'm trynig to collect fusion logs and dump. But regarding dump, as there is no real crash, i'm not sure it will collect something.

But i'll keep you updated. Thank you

Please find the fusion.log collected during my issue fusionlog.zip

oliviermasson commented 5 years ago

As I suspected, our problem does not generates application dump.

rjmholt commented 5 years ago

Admittedly this issue and others like it are stumping us a bit.

One thing would be to try the preview version of the extension, powershell-preview in the marketplace.

The next suggestion would be to add logging statements to the ps1 and psm1 files. You should be able to just edit it at ~/.vscode/extensions/ms-vscode.powershell-2019.5.0/modules/PowerShellEditorServices/PowerShellEditorServices.psm1 (also Start-EditorServices.ps1 is in the same directory).

My guess is that something is stopping PowerShell from progressing at some point and the only way to know where the problem occurs is to see where it stops printing.

We'll look into adding more logging to the start script in the near term, and hopefully we can identify a way to stop this from happening.

oliviermasson commented 5 years ago

Hi @rjmholt

I've tried the preview version of extension, but issue is still there. I'm trying to log as much as possible Will keep you updated as soon as possible

FYI my laptop as been upgraded to a new Windows version

But issue is still there

oliviermasson commented 5 years ago

Certainly something beyond my knownledge, but I wonder if the problem is not in the way VScode starts a new Terminal "Powershell Integrated Console" rather than in the code of the Language Editor Service itself. Indeed, if I manually start a new terminal through:

And that, if in this one I execute the same command to start the language service. By using the same session path Force loglevel to Diagnostic And set a new log folder

All like this:

C:\Users\masson\.vscode\extensions\ms-vscode.powershell-2019.5.0\modules\PowerShellEditorServices\Start-EditorServices.ps1 -HostName 'Visual Studio Code Host' -HostProfileId 'Microsoft.VSCode' -HostVersion '2019.5.0' -AdditionalModules @('PowerShellEditorServices.VSCode') -BundledModulesPath 'C:\Users\masson\.vscode\extensions\ms-vscode.powershell-2019.5.0\modules' -EnableConsoleRepl -LogLevel 'Diagnostic' -LogPath 'C:\Users\masson\EditorServices.log' -SessionDetailsPath 'C:\Users\masson\.vscode\extensions\ms-vscode.powershell-2019.5.0\sessions\PSES-VSCode-22796-494317' -FeatureFlags @()

Then I don't seem to have any problem, at least up to the write session file. PS : I have added some basic Logging in the code of Start-EditorServices.ps1:

PS C:\Users\masson\OneDrive - NetApp Inc\GitHub\svmtool> C:\Users\masson\.vscode\extensions\ms-vscode.powershell-2019.5.0\modules\PowerShellEditorServices\Start-EditorServices.ps1 -HostName 'Visual Studio Code Host' -HostProfileId 'Microsoft.VSCode' -HostVersion '2019.5.0' -AdditionalModules @('PowerShellEditorServices.VSCode') -BundledModulesPath 'C:\Users\masson\.vscode\extensions\ms-vscode.powershell-2019.5.0\modules' -EnableConsoleRepl -LogLevel 'Diagnostic' -LogPath 'C:\Users\masson\EditorServices.log' -SessionDetailsPath 'C:\Users\masson\.vscode\extensions\ms-vscode.powershell-2019.5.0\sessions\PSES-VSCode-22796-494317' -FeatureFlags @()

Of course, in this kind of execution mode, I don't have a functional extension either. I stay indefinitely on the message "Waiting for EditorServicesHost to complete execution..."... But maybe this is normal and due to the fact that I manually launched the extension?

Anyway, if the problem is elsewhere, I don't see how to add more log, the rest of the code is in the form of .DLL, so i can't add any Log inside. Or i don't knwo how to do it???

As a reminder, when VScode automatically starts this extension, the error seems to be around the possibility of writing the session file:

This problem is very impacting in my developments because I no longer have access to the debugger.

Thanks in advance.

@oliviermasson I'm going to deduplicate this issue to https://github.com/PowerShell/vscode-powershell/issues/2014. I've posted a comment in there about collecting more information.
